• A custom improvised tobacco pipe

Lets save the hugs and hi's for later, lets get to the point :smile:. The pipe is made out of PAPER. (It's hard paper, which you achieve by adding natural wood glue [totally safe]). People who are wondering how strong it is, well.... it's strong as a rock I suppose I can say. (You can beat the living hell out of it). The paper doesn't burn, in rare cases it might a little, but not much to affect your health or the taste. I improvised the build, since I was planning to make something else out of Hard Paper. (A minature cannon :v:, might make it later and ofcourse a working one). So the pipe consists out of two parts. The barrel and the body. The body is the long black piece, with a red tip where your mouth goes. The barrel is the shorter black piece, with a red tip what goes on the body and the barrel contains the material wanted to smoke. Some picture stuff, sorry for the quality : [B][U]Unfinished product[/U][/B] [B]Picture of the unfinished barrel and the bodys connection point.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/MoarmoNl.jpg[/IMG] [B]Picture of the barrel and the body seperated, revealing the connection point.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/54NW8Xxl.jpg[/IMG] [B][U]Finished product[/U][/B] [B]Picture of the finished barrel and the body. They both are connected, the barrel is still removable.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/uf8qptel.jpg[/IMG] [B]Picture of the barrels inside space, where the smokable material can be put. (You can stuff it pretty well which will last you for quite a long time. Also you can see how thick the barrel is and still the barrel doesn't burn. You can also see the filter of the body.)[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GbXLspdl.jpg[/IMG] [B]Picture of the filter, which is located at the end of the body and quite at the start of the barrel. The filter is the W paper filter used for smoking joints. Also you can see how thick the body is.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Trsuwbil.jpg[/IMG] Well, that's about it. I'm pleased how it turned out, considering that I didn't plan it and made it in a two hour time. Might make a new one some time later.
"Tobacco".
This is a bad idea.
Think about it. It's not really to be smoked. I see these on the movies and thought I would try one as I failed making a cannon before. BUT STILL Cannon will be made.
Dude gets board so he makes a pipe out of his math homework. Last I heard paper was not the best thing for holding things on fire.

[QUOTE=Tw34k;39623830]Plastic or some sort of resin?[/QUOTE] I'm no expert, but all the pipes I've ever seen have had plastic (or perhaps resin) stems and mouthpieces, but the bowl itself, where the burning of legal substances occurs, is treated wood. With the right shit on it, I'm sure paper works just as well.
I think the stems are often ceramic at least older ones otherwise wood. The wood is however usually a dense hardwood and heat treated to make it more robust and less likely to burn I believe. Before that clay was used.
